Motility Parameters

The present study was undertaken to assess the motility and velocity parameters of sperm of freezable and nonfreezable ejaculates by computer-assisted sperm analyser (CASA) such as Hamilton-Thorne Semen Analyser IVOS 11 in mithun semen. Fifty ejaculates (twenty-five ejaculates each for freezable and nonfreezable semen ejaculates) were collected from ten matured mithun bulls. CASA parameters, motility parameters such as forward progressive motility (FPM) (%), nonprogressive motility (NPM) (%), total motility (TM) (%), and static sperms (SM) (%); velocity parameters such as curvilinear velocity (VCL) (μm/sec), straight line velocity (VSL) (μm/sec), average path velocity (VAP) (μm/sec), linearity (LIN) (%), straightness (STR) (%), wobble (WOB) (%), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH) (μm), and beat/cross-frequency (BCF) (Hz) were measured by CASA analyser. The result revealed that these parameters varied significantly (P<0.05) between the freezable and nonfreezable ejaculates and freezable ejaculates have significantly (P<0.05) higher value than nonfreezable ejaculates. It was concluded that most of the CASA parameters were significantly lower in nonfreezable ejaculates than in freezable ejaculates in mithun and confirmed that the CASA was effective for a quick and objective analysis of motility and velocity parameters in mithun semen.

Single-layer centrifugation (SLC) with EquipureTM Bottom Layer has been used to enhance the quality of stallion semen samples; however, no studies have been performed on donkeys. The aim of this study was to determine if SLC with EquipureTM Bottom Layer improves kinematic parameters on frozen–thawed donkey sperm. Semen was collected from 4 Andalusian donkeys by artificial vagina. Three ejaculates from each donkey were centrifuged with EquiproTM, supernatant was removed, and pellet was re-extended in the freezing medium GentTM to a final concentration of 200 × 106 spermatozoa per milliliter. Sperm were slowly cooled to 5°C for 2 h, loaded in 0.5-mL plastic straws, and frozen in liquid-nitrogen vapors. After at least one week of storage, straws were thawed in a water bath at 37°C for 30 s. After thawing, semen samples were divided in 2 aliquots: aliquot 1 was used as such (control) and aliquot 2 was processed by SLC using EquipureTM Bottom Layer. Computer-assisted sperm analysis was performed, and sperm kinematics total motility (%), progressive motility (%), curvilinear velocity (VCL; µm s–1), velocity straight line (VSL; µm s–1), velocity average path (VAP; µm s–1), linearity (LIN; %), straightness (STR; %), wobble (WOB; %), lateral head displacement (ALH; µm), and beat cross frequency (BCF; Hz) were statistically compared using GLM model between frozen–thawed semen samples processed or not with EquipureTM. Results were expressed as mean ± standard error. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were found between SLC-selected and unselected semen for total motility (77.44 ± 5.83 v. 58.89 ± 6.07), progressive motility (76.88 ± 4.52 v. 56.59 ± 5.44), VCL (137.50 ± 0.75 v. 133.0 ± 0.99), LIN (69.43 ± 0.31 v. 68.23 ± 0.41), STR (78.45 ± 0.29 v. 76.90 ± 0.37), WOB (85.06 ± 0.18 v. 83.91 ± 0.26), ALH (2.76 ± 0.01 v. 2.44 ± 0.01), and BCF (9.13 ± 0.05 v. 8.53 ± 0.06), respectively. No significant differences were observed for VSL (102.89 ± 0.70 v. 104.32 ± 0.95) and VAP (123.21 ± 0.71 v. 121.50 ± 0.98). Most of the computer-assisted sperm analysis parameters used in the present study have been previously identified as reliable markers of sperm motility in relation to sperm quality and fertility. It has also been reported that VCL appears to be critical for the formation of the sperm reservoir and penetration of the zona pellucida. In addition, other variables improved in the SLC-selected samples have been described as measure of progressivity (LIN, STR) and spermatozoa vigor (BCF, ALH). These preliminary results suggest an additional option for improving sperm quality in donkey semen doses. In conclusion, SLC with EquipureTM can be used to enhance kinematic parameters on frozen–thawed donkey sperm.

In order to optimize the donkey sperm motility analysis by the CASA (Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis)-Mot system, twelve ejaculates were collected from six jackasses. Capillary loaded chamber (CLC), ISAS®D4C depths 10 and 20 µm, ISAS®D4C Leja 20 and drop displacement chamber (DDC), Spermtrack® (Spk) depths 10 and 20 µm were used. Sperm kinematic variables were evaluated using each chamber and a high-resolution camera capable of capturing a maximum of 500 frames/second (fps). The optimum frame rate (OFR) (defined according to curvilinear velocity—VCL) was dependent on chamber type. The highest OFR obtained was 278.46 fps by Spk20. Values for VCL, straight-line velocity (VSL), straightness (STR), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH) and beat cross frequency (BCF) were high in DDC and 10 µm depth. In both DDC 10 and 20 µm, the sperm velocities (VCL, VSL, VAP) and ALH values decreased significantly from the centre to the edges, while Wobble and BCF increased. No defined behavior was observed along the CLC. However, all the kinematic variables had a higher value in a highly concentrated sample, in both chamber types. In conclusion, analyzing a minimum of nine fields at 250 fps from the centre to the edges in Spk10 chamber using a dilution of 30 × 106 sperm/mL offers the best choice for donkey computerised sperm motility analysis.

The effects of a simple saline solution prepared using two different pH (4.4 and 8.5) on sperm motility in burbot were investigated. Results were recorded during a 96-hour chilled storage (4°C) in 24-hour intervals. Measurements were focused on the detailed characteristics of motility using 12 parameters obtained from the Computer-assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA). Significantly higher progressive motility (pMOT), distance average path (DAP), distance curved line, distance straight line (DSL), average path velocity (VAP), curvilinear velocity, straight line velocity, and beat cross frequency (BCF) were observed with the activating solution buffered at pH 8.5 in comparison with pH 4.4. Already after 24 h a significant reduction was measured in pMOT (0 h: 49 ± 24%, 24 h: 12 ± 7%). Similar decreasing tendency was recorded only after 72 h in DAP (0 h: 26 ± 4 µm/s, 72 h: 19 ± 9 µm/s), DSL (0 h: 21 ± 5 µm/s, 72 h: 17 ± 8 µm/s), VAP (0 h: 59 ± 9 µm/s, 72 h: 43 ± 21 µm/s), and BCF (0 h: 28 ± 2 Hz, 72 h: 18 ± 10 Hz). The response of different investigated CASA parameters to different treatments varied in our experiments. According to our studies, numerous burbot sperm motility parameters are sensitive to chilled storage and to low pH of the activating solution. Our results could support the effective sperm quality assessment and successful artificial propagation process in burbot.

The pattern of sperm transport and survival in the mare’s reproductive tract is different between fresh and frozen-thawed semen. A probable reason for this difference is the biophysiological changes in sperm during cryopreservation of equine semen. These changes can impair motility of stallion sperm after thawing. The aim of the present work was to test the effect of different caffeine concentrations on stallion sperm motility after thawing. One ejaculate of 9 stallions was frozen with the INRA82 frozen extender, and after thawing, different caffeine concentrations were added to the semen samples according to the treatments: control INRA82 without caffeine addition (T1), T1+1mM caffeine (T2), T1+2mM caffeine (T3), T1+3mM caffeine (T4), T1+5mM caffeine (T5), T1+7.5mM caffeine (T6), and T1+10mM caffeine (T7). The analysis of sperm motility parameters was performed with a computer-assisted semen analyser in 4 time periods: immediately after semen samples thawing (t0) and 15min (t15), 30min (t30), and 40min (t40) after semen sample thawing. One semen sample of each treatment was thawed, and an aliquot was analysed for the following computer-assisted semen analysis characteristics: velocity curvilinear (VCL; µm s−1), velocity straight line (µm s−1), velocity average path (µm s−1), linearity (%), straightness (%), wobble (%), amplitude of lateral head displacement (µm), beat cross frequency (BCF; Hz), and percentage of total sperm motility (TM) and progressive sperm motility. The statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA and Duncan’s test. The sperm parameters progressive sperm motility, linearity, wobble, and amplitude of lateral head displacement did not differ among the treatments (P&gt;0.05). Immediately after addition (t0) of 5, 7.5, and 10mM caffeine concentrations, an increase of TM was observed (T5: 53.1%; T6: 45.9%; and T7: 47.4%) compared with the other treatments (T1: 37.5%; T2: 36.0%; T3: 36.6%; and T4: 32.3%; P&lt;0.05). Although after 15min of incubation (t15) the TM decreased compared with t0 in T5, T6, and T7 treatments, the percentage was comparable with the other treatments at t15, t30, and t40. The mean value for TM was higher with 5mM caffeine compared with the control group (38.6% v. 34.7%; P&lt;0.05), whereas for the 10mM caffeine treatment velocity straight line (19.9v. 17.1µm s−1), velocity average path (25.6v. 22.9µm s−1), and straightness (75.4v. 72.3%) were higher than the control (P&lt;0.05). For the 5, 7.5, and 10mM caffeine treatments, VCL and BCF were higher than the control (VCL: 33.9, 34.5, 36.8, and 31.5µm s−1, respectively; BCF: 8.1, 8.6, 9.0, and 7.2Hz, respectively). The remaining motility parameters did not differ until 40min after the treatment (P&lt;0.05). In conclusion, the addition of 5, 7.5, and 10mM caffeine concentrations after semen thawing increased TM and most of the sperm motility characteristics. However, given the complexities of sperm transport, capacitation, and so on, further experiments are needed to test whether caffeine treatments could be used to improve the fertilization rate of frozen-thawed equine semen.

We previously reported that single layer centrifugation (SLC) with Percoll® (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) of fresh bovine semen resulted in improved sperm progressive motility and movement, as evidenced by computer-assisted sperm analyzer (CASA) after freezing-thawing. However, no report has been found in the literature on the use of Percoll Plus® (PP; GE Healthcare), a nontoxic colloid, for the same purpose. Thus, this study aimed to verify the effects of SLC-PP before bull sperm freezing on sperm kinematics after cryopreservation. Ejaculates were collected from 3 Nellore bulls (6 from each) using an artificial vagina. After collection, the semen was assessed and pooled, and then 1 billion spermatozoa either diluted [D; 1:2 (v/v)] in freezing extender (FE, without glycerol) or undiluted (UD) was layered on top of a 9-mL column of PP (in 15-mL centrifuge tubes) at concentrations of 70% or 90% to form the 70D, 70UD, 90D, and 90UD treatment groups. Following centrifugation for 13 min at 839 × g [except for the control (C) group], the supernatant was removed and the sperm pellet diluted to 50 × 106 sperm mL−1 in FE medium plus glycerol. Then, frozen–thawed sperm samples were analysed by CASA (MMC Sperm, St. Petersburg, Russia) for the following parameters: total motility (TM, %), progressive motility (PM, %), curvilinear velocity (VCL, µm−1), straight line velocity (VSL, µm s−1), average path velocity (VAP, µm s−1), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH, µm), beat cross frequency (BCF, Hz), linearity (LIN, %), and straightness (STR, %). For statistical analyses, ANOVA and Student-Newman-Keuls test were used. Data are presented as mean ± SEM with P < 0.05 taken as significant. No difference was found among the groups for TM, VSL, BCF, and STR. However, the percentage of PM was higher (P < 0.05) in the SLC-selected sperm samples (values ranging from 42.0 ± 7.0 to 47.4 ± 11.4) than in C (28.8 ± 5.0), and ALH was lower in 70UD (1.6 ± 0.12) and 70D (1.7 ± 0.10) than in C (1.9 ± 0.2). Moreover, 70UD (49.0 ± 1.0), 90UD (50.0 ± 3.0), and 90D (50.0 ± 4.0) displayed higher percentage of LIN (P < 0.05) compared with C (45.0 ± 2.0) and 70D (48.0 ± 3.0). On the other hand, similar results were obtained for VCL (from 126.3 ± 8.0 to 130.0 ± 20.5) and VAP (from 82.7 ± 14.5 to 85.1 ± 6.9) in C, 70UD, and 70D, but these values differed (P < 0.05) from those for VCL in 90UD (104.6 ± 10.3) and 90D (97.2 ± 22.0) as well as for VAP in 90UD (72.2 ± 11.0) and 90D (71.8 ± 9.6). These are the first data demonstrating favourable influences of SLC with 70% Percoll Plus® to select distinct sperm subpopulations as evidenced by enhanced PM, LIN, and ALH. Thus, SLC-PP could optimize the production of frozen bull semen by decreasing the number of sperm per insemination dose, and help to circumvent limitations associated with the poor semen quality sometimes found in bulls of high genetic merit. This research was funded by FAPESP # 2015/20986-3, MasterFertility and Tairana Artificial Insemination Station, Brazil.

The recent introduction of various devices for computer-assisted sperm analysis allows us to have not only objective measurements of the seminal parameters but also to determine some characteristics of sperm motion such as curvilinear and linear velocity and amplitude of lateral head displacement that cannot be obtained by routine analysis. These new seminal parameters seem to be very useful in the diagnosis of male infertility and, among them, ALH seems to play a more important role; in one of our studies we found a significant correlation between this parameter and the results of the bovine cervical mucus penetration test (Penetrak). Furthermore it is possible to determine sperm subpopulations for each parameter and so it will be possible to express a more accurate judgement not only on the fertilizing capacity of semen but also to know the effects on spermatozoa of different activating and capacitating treatments.

Several studies on sperm cooling and cryopreservation have been done in horses; however, only a few them have been developed in donkeys. In addition, no studies have been performed to freeze cooled stored donkey semen. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine if it is possible to freeze donkey sperm after 24 h of cool storage. Semen was collected from 4 Andalusian donkeys by artificial vagina. After collection, each sample was separated into 2 aliquots; one of them was immediately frozen (t0) and the other one was cooled and stored before freezing (t24). The cryopreservation procedure consisted of a previous dilution of semen with EquiPro™. After that, semen was centrifuged and the sperm pellet resuspended with Gent® extender plus ethylene glycol (4%) to achieve a final concentration of 100 × 106 sperm mL–1. Sperm was slowly cooled to 5°C, loaded in 0.5-mL plastic straws and frozen in LN vapours. The second aliquot (t24) was diluted with Gent® extender to a final concentration of 50 × 106 sperm mL–1 and then cooled and stored at 5°C for 24 h. After that, cooled semen samples were cryopreserved following the same procedure as described above. Straws were thawed in a water bath at 37° for 30 s. Computer-assisted sperm motility analysis was performed. Total motility (TM), progressive motility (PM), and the following kinematic parameters: velocity curvilinear (VCL; µm s–1), velocity straight line (VSL; µm s–1), velocity average path (VAP; µm s–1), linearity (LIN; %), straightness (STR; %), wobble (WOB; %), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH; µm), and beat cross frequency (BCF; Hz) were compared between treatments by ANOVA. Results were expressed as mean ± standard error. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were found between treatments (t0 v. t24) for TM (63.76 ± 4.75 v. 51.67 ± 3.69), PM (36.01 ± 3.19 v. 27.24 ± 2.72), VCL (77.29 ± 0.65 v. 67.56 ± 0.78), VSL (58.50 ± 0.61 v. 52.11 ± 0.76), VAP (67.82 ± 0.64 v. 59.41 ± 0.79), LIN (57.90 ± 0.33 v. 59.53 ± 0.32), STR (70.39 ± 0.30 v. 72.43 ± 0.41), WOB (75.64 ± 0.22 v. 75.48 ± 0.32), ALH (1.88 ± 0.09 v. 1.69 ± 0.10), and BCF (6.28 ± 0.04 v. 6.51 ± 0.06). These preliminary results showed significant differences between cryopreservation at 0 and 24 h post-cooling; however, understanding that direct freezing is better in terms of sperm motility, cryopreservation of cooled stored semen could still be considered good according to the values obtained for sperm motility parameters after thawing. In our opinion, sperm centrifugation before cooling probably improve the results of cryopreservation 24 h post-cooling, due to the negative effect of seminal plasma on sperm viability during storage. In addition, the analysis of other sperm parameters would be useful to check more accurately differences between treatments. In conclusion, sperm motility parameters were higher in donkey semen samples immediately frozen after collection in comparison to semen samples cryopreserved after 24 h of cooling storage. Further studies are needed to improve cooling and cryopreservation procedures for freezing cooled stored donkey semen.

AbstractThe motility parameters of Fasciola hepatica miracidia were assessed at different temperatures and times post-hatching using computer-assisted sperm analysis. Eggs were incubated at 22°C or 25°C for 14 days. Five motion parameters were evaluated at different incubation temperatures up to 10 h post-hatching. No differences were observed in the percentage that hatched after incubation at the two different temperatures. However, the straight-line velocity of miracidia following incubation at 22°C was significantly different from that observed at 25°C (P< 0.01). All miracidium motion parameters at different post-hatching temperatures showed an overall decrease at the end of the experiment. Those miracidia hatching from eggs incubated at 25°C had a higher velocity of 1673.3 μm/s compared with 1553.3 μm/s at 22°C. Velocity parameters increased as the post-hatching temperature increased from 22°C to 37°C.

Sperm sexing is a technique of sorting a specific type of sperm cell to fertilize the egg cell. One of the sexing methods that can be used for spermatozoa sexing is percoll gradient density centrifugation. This research aims to find out various motility parameters using Computer-assisted Sperm Analysis and the proportion of spermatozoa X and Y using density gradient centrifugation method percoll with different initial volume. The study was conducted at Grati Beef Cattle Research Station, Pasuruan, from January to March 2020. Materials of the study were Semen of 3 Filial Ongole Cattles, aged ± 5 years, with ± 700 kg body weight, mass motility ≥ 2+, and individual motility ≥ 70%. The method used was experimental using a Randomized Group Design with 3 treatment volume when sexing i.e. T0= 1 ml, T1= 1.5 ml dan T2= 2 ml with repetition 11 times. The repetition also functions as groups (blocks). The results showed that after sexing and cooling up to 5oC, the percentage of motility is T0:71.02+10.08 %; T1: 79.63+8,65 % and T2: 83.38+6.67 %. Progressive motility on T0: 47.68+8.71%; T1: 59.61+7.26 % and T2: 62.21+6.74%. Curvilinear Velocity (VCL) on T0: 50.9±7.73 µm/s, T1: 55.2±5.03 µm/s and T2: 53.2±5.97%. Straight-line Velocity (VSL) on T0: 20.8±8.19 µm/s; T1: 21.6±6.02 µm/s; T2: 22.1±5.77 µm/s. The Average Path Velocity (VAP) on T0: 30.2±7.82 µm/s; T1: 32.5±6.14 µm/s and T2 : 31.5±6.18 µm/s. Linearity (LIN) on T0: 40.2±12.26%; T1: 39.1±10.31%;T2: 39.8±7.25%. Straightness (STR) on T0: 67.2±11.20%; T1: 65.7±10.06%; T2: 67.2±7.92%. Wobble (WOB) on T0: 59±9.49%; T1: 58.8±8.63% and T2: 59.1±7.74%. The conclusion of the study is the motility and progressive motility of spermatozoa in samples with an initial volume of 2 ml is better than samples with an initial volume of 1 ml and 1.5 ml.

 El estudio evaluó la motilidad espermática y su efecto postdescongelación en semen caprino, en dos medios comerciales (Andromed® y TwoStep®) y diferentes protocolos de congelación (medio completo, con adicción del 10% de yema de huevo, semen centrifugado y sobrenadante seminal), se utilizaron machos de la raza alpina de la Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander Ocaña, el semen fue colectado con electroeyaculador, una vez los medios terminados y parte de los contenidos seminales enteros o centrifugados mezclados, se estabilizó por 2 horas, se envasó en pajillas de 0,5 cc y se congela en vapores de nitrógeno por 10 minutos, las pajillas se llevaron al laboratorio de Andrología de la Universidad del Zulia y por medio del sistema C.A.S.A.(Computer Assisted Sperm Análisis) se evaluaron los parámetros de motilidad como velocidad curvilínea (VCL), velocidad rectilínea (VSL), velocidad lineal (VAP), índice de linealidad (LIN), índice de rectitud (STR), índice de oscilación (ALH), Amplitud media del desplazamiento lateral de la cabeza del espermatozoide (BCF), los datos fueron analizados por medio del procedimiento GLM de SAS versión 9.0; los mejores índices de motilidad (VCL, ALH, BCF) fueron expresados enel tratamiento de contenido seminal centrifugado en medio Andromed®. (p≤0,001))La mejor progresividad espermática (VSL,LIN,STR)se presentó el tratamiento de Semen completo de caprino, criopreservado en medio comercial TwoStep®. ABSTRACT  The study evaluated the effect sperm motility and sperm post-thawing in goats, two commercial means (Andromed ® and Two Step ®) and different freezing protocols (complete medium with 10% addition of the egg yolk, semen centrifuged supernatant and seminal ), we used males of the Alpine race of the University Francisco de Paula Santander Ocaña, semen was collected with electroejaculator once finished media and part of the whole and centrifuged seminal contents mixed, stabilized by two hours, packed in 0.5 cc straws and frozen in nitrogen vapor for 10 min, the straws were taken to the laboratory of Andrology at the University of Zulia and through CASA system (Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis) were evaluated motility parameters such as curvilinear velocity (VCL), straight line velocity (VSL), linear velocity (VAP), linearity index (LIN), straightness index (STR) Oscillation Index (ALH ) average amplitude of the lateral displacement of the sperm head (BCF), the data were analyzed by the GLM procedure of SAS version 9.0, the highest rates of motility (VCL, ALH, BCF) were expressed in the treatment of seminal content centrifugation Andromed ® medium. (p ≤ 0.001)) The best progressive sperm (VSL, LIN, STR) will present the full Semen treatment goats, cryopreserved at Two Step ® commercial medium.Keywords: semen, buck, Andromed, Two step.
